About this property

Delightful elevated sunny S/C Studio

This is an ideal place where couples or friends can relax in private for a romantic getaway.

This lovely, fully renovated colonial cottage-style bed sit studio is fully self contained, and situated in an elevated 1 acre of grounds. right on Gregory Lane, a private lane which overlooks the town of Whangamata.

This sweet little hideaway also has attractive polished wooden floors. It has a modern smart kitchenette and ensuite bathroom plus a hot water outdoor shower to wash off the sand from the beach.

Your comfort and warmth is ensured with a heat pump and cosy electric blanket, plus a choice of summer or winter weight duvets and bed quilt. A flat screen TV and Freeview ensures quality viewing.

Either relax outdoors on the two sun loungers, or use the table and chairs in the sheltered courtyard.

A delightful bush walkway along the Moana-anu estuary with access from nearby Brenton Place, brings you out on the main road to the bridge and a short walk past the marina into the town for your latte and newspaper.

The Studio is adjacent to a restored colonial style kauri cottage holiday home but your privacy is ensured as you have use of the entire property. If the owners occupy their holiday home they would let you know of this in advance.
Its set in a peaceful sheltered garden and orchard surroundings with native bird life, yet only minutes drive away from Whangamata's popular surf beach, shops, clubs, estuary / harbour, Wentworth Valley Regional Park and nearby golf courses.

Its also well located to take day trips to explore Coromandel, or head south via a pretty coastal road to Tauranga and the fruit bowl country of Bay of Plenty before coming home to your own cosy and snug retreat,... this is just the perfect base for exploring the region !

Lovely cottage

Beautiful cottage, French romance style, in a quiet part of Whangamatā, rather out of town. Need a car (taxi) to get to Whangamata center for sure. Lovely gardens with native birds, serene, clean.

Gregory Lane Hide Away

A lovely place with a beautiful property to enjoy. Close enough, under 5 mins drive, to the main street but far enough away to have a quiet time. Loved the Indian idol by the outsde table. Cheer Kaye and Peter

Great place for a getaway

We stayed for two nights and really enjoyed our visit. The studio was a perfect size for us and the property is clearly well looked after. The owners are lovely and very welcoming as well. If you want to be in a quiet area but still close to the beach, this spot is ideal.

Lovely stay

The studio is on the same property as another house so not completely secluded. This was unexpected but worked out fine and was a lovely stay overall.

Stay in Whangamata

Beautiful property with a well maintained garden. The studio is well appointed and spacious. International travellers need to be aware that you will need to bring your own bed linen however for an additional charge you could hire bed linen from the vendor,

Very comfortable but …

Apart from a token kitchen with no hob, this is a well equipped cottage with nice touches throughout. The concerns are the‘traditional’ practice of charging extra for bedding ie burying part of the actual cost for overseas visitors in the small print; the lack of key collection information until after arrival (stressful for oldies); noise from trucks on the adjacent main road can also be intrusive. As former owners of holiday cottages for many years it is clear that this property is run for the convenience of the owner not the guest.

Relaxing, Tasteful and little Noisey with Trucks

Beautiful relaxing tasteful interior, detached/next to large main house and garden area. Lush sub-tropical surrounding garden with relative privacy. We spent most of the time at the beach, of course! With a lot of work going on around Coromandel at the mo, this bypass road had a dozen trucks along the the road 25m above the accommodation. For medium/light sleepers might be challenging (for partner fine, for me no so much).

Perfect Little Studio

Great clean and tidy little studio - superb for a couple! Nice location, although next to the by-pass road, the intermittent traffic does not bother you. There is everything you need for a short to medium length stay and it is no problem to supply your own linen as requested. Check-in process and departure were simple and easy - the information sent out on booking, and that supplied at the studio are an absolute guide to get through these processes. We were lucky enough to meet the owners - who were staying in the adjacent property at the time and they were very welcoming, friendly, and helpful...but also treated you with the utmost respect and privacy at all times. A GREAT STAY - THANK YOU. WE WOULD BE HAPPY TO GO THERE AGAIN!!
